Dear Friend & Ministry Partner,

We endeavor to keep you updated with regular reports of our activities and ministry, especially those of you who have email. Some may miss a few things, so in this edition we have included a summary of last year's highlights, plus a look ahead. Thank you so much for helping us reach out to the nations with the Gospel.


REFLECTIONS ON 2005


South Korea OutreachDon with Korean light moment


Our ministry outreach to South Korea in April saw many lives blessed and challenged -- both to know God, and to make Him known. We both spoke at a 3-day Missions Conference in Chun Cheon and Don taught a Church Planting Seminar. One church set a goal for the next 10 years to plant 100 new indigenous churches in Asia. They are also committed to training and sending out 300 full-time Asian missionaries! They have asked us to help them with this ongoing vision.


Sri Lanka Ministry Team

Sri Lanka responds to message of home and faithSri Lanka is a nation of 20 Million people who are nearly all Buddhist, Hindus & Muslims. Don was a part of a large team called Nations Light that ministered throughout the country last summer, often in high-risk security zones. 4,000 patients were treated medically; 20,000 reached in evangelistic crusades; and thousands of others attended youth and women's conferences, and other events. A total of 1,700 decisions for Christ were recorded. In addition, many Tsunami refugees received practical aid and spiritual help. Local churches & pastors are doing follow-up and reporting good success.

Return to Singapore

This island nation was once our home and where we served on staff with Youth With A Mission. Many dear friends still live there. During his time in Singapore last year, Don spoke at several drug treatment centers, churches and fellowship groups that resulted in many coming to the Lord.



Gulf Coast Disaster Relief

Two weeks after the monster hurricane ravaged the Gulf Coast, Don joined a first responder team to Biloxi, MS serving as a volunteer Chaplain and relief worker. A month later, he returned again because of the overwhelming needs, this time to ground zero - New Orleans. In both cases, pastoral care and practical help were given to hundreds of shattered lives at Relief Centers, local churches, and in devastated neighborhoods. It was a privilege to be God's hand of hope and healing to those hurting from their loss.



Other 2005 Ministry & Highlights

UPCOMING MINISTRY IN NEPAL & PAKISTAN


During March and April, Don will be going to two Third-World nations he has never been to. In Nepal, the land of the Himalayas, he will be teaching a week at YWAM's Discipleship Training School on Spiritual Warfare, and a few days at a Bible College on Sermon Preparation & Preaching. Both are in the capital city of Katmandu. He will also share in churches and with the YWAM leadership.

From there Don flies to Pakistan to join up with the Nations Light team from the US, Sri Lanka, UK and Ghana. Local coordinators are arranging 17 evangelistic meetings, 6 leadership seminars, women & youth gatherings, and other events - in ten areas of the country. Much of the ministry will be to the poor, and possibly to some affected by last year's earthquake that killed 87,000 and caused 3.5 million to be homeless.

Please keep this major outreach in your prayers. Nepal is over 80% Hindu with much political unrest and Pakistan is 97% Muslim with growing anti-Western sentiment. Pray for safety; good health; open hearts; and God's anointing, strength and provision.

Each team member must raise enough to cover his own expenses like airfare, lodging and food. A total of $3,500 must be raised for Nepal and Pakistan, with over $1,500 still needed. A one-time gift for this special project would help so much - and can be sent to us directly or to our missions account (see the top of this email).

Thank you for prayerfully considering being a part of this opportunity to impact so many lives who are yet unreached. They will be eternally grateful that you cared - and we promise to be good stewards of each gift entrusted to us.

Taking God's Love to the Nations,

Don & Patti Hall
